Nits Bis - In A Play (das Maedchen Im Pelz) lyrics

In a play where the actors die

You told me you were thinking of

The clothes-line in the attic

In a play when the shirts are dry

You showed him the vaccination mark

On your upper arm

I will try to frame your face

I will try to speak your name

Das Maedchen im Pelz

The elevator's gone

In a plane where the stewards charm

You told me you were falling

Out of the highest tree in the world

In a plane flying to Helsinki

Somewhere in a forest

A tree is falling down

I will try to frame your face

I will try to speak your name

Das Maedchen im Pelz

The elevator's gone

In a play where the actors die

You told me you were thinking of

A bathroom hung with dripping blouses
